Shade Sail – Education/Commercial

A Shade Sail for Educational and Commercial premises can be custom designed, manufactured and installed by John Hewinson Canvas.

Shade protection is a Ministry of Education requirement for all Schools, Kindergartens, Kohanga Reo, Playcentre and Early Childcare Centres. For commercial premises, Shade Sails are a great idea for lunch or meeting places. A Shade Sail will enhance any motel, hotel or other workplace. Fire retardant materials are available to meet all regulation requirements.

All our Shade Sails are made from UV treated materials, and will last 10 years or more. They will not stretch, shrink or fade. Shade Sails will provide 95%+ UV protection. We use quality stainless steel fittings and strong galvanised steel or wooden poles.

We also custom manufacture Sandpit covers to keep out rain, leaves and cats.
